IsambardPrince"A felon would need a minimum credit score of 580 with a 3.5% down payment or 500 with a 10% down payment to buy a house using an FHA mortgage — widely recognized as the most lenient with employment and credit. Building credit through secured cards and other tools can help you meet these requirements."Jan 07 00:28

-TechrightsBot-tr/#techrights-edition.cnn.com | Justin Trudeau: Canadian Prime Minister has announced his resignation. What happens now? | CNNJan 07 03:49
IsambardPrinceTrudeau just resigns and suspends Parliament so that they don't have to have an election and lose right now.Jan 07 03:49
IsambardPrinceHe's completely fucked Canada and nobody is even running the country now until March 28th, and even then, it's so his party can stay in power for about 6 months until the election happens.Jan 07 03:50
IsambardPrince"In a blistering letter of resignation, she criticized Trudeau’s “political gimmicks,” likely referring to a two-month sales tax holiday and 250 Canadian dollar ($175) rebates for most workers.Jan 07 03:51
IsambardPrinceFreeland said Canada could “ill afford” these policies, seen as a pre-election handout to claw back some voters, and coming as the country faces the serious prospect of huge tariffs which could be levied by the incoming Trump administration."Jan 07 03:51
IsambardPrince---Jan 07 03:51
IsambardPrinceGeorge W. Bush pulled one of these.Jan 07 03:51
IsambardPrinceIn 2008 they sent people $800 checks or something, before the election.Jan 07 03:51
IsambardPrinceThen after the election, you filed your taxes.Jan 07 03:51
IsambardPrinceAnd it says something like "Did you get an $800 check?" "Yes." "Okay, add $800 to your tax bill."Jan 07 03:52
IsambardPrinceMinceR, ^Jan 07 03:52
IsambardPrinceSo they give you the check before the election and take it back from you after the election.Jan 07 03:52
IsambardPrinceBecause there's people out there stupid enough to fall for it.Jan 07 03:52
IsambardPrinceIn the mean time they spent millions of dollars sending out a letter saying "The check is coming." and then millions more dollars sending the check in a different mailing. The check they were going to take back.Jan 07 03:53

IsambardPrince"This error actually still exists in post-Windows Vista versions of the OS, but Microsoft introduced a "trick" to hide the worming effect. When a program crashes or hangs on modern Windows, it still paints ghost windows like in XP or earlier — they've simply become invisible. The newer versions of Windows' composer now hides the crashed window, and creates a new screenshot copy of the last known functional version of said programJan 07 05:42
IsambardPrince. The new instance will not be functional, and will fade out with a grey filter to represent the fact it's crashed. While it's far less fun than worming windows, this method prevents the ghost windows from filling up your screen and interacting with programs that might still be functioning."Jan 07 05:42
